Weird

Lille, France, 2013

Weird, because that's how I felt when I took this picture, that everything that was going on was weird... a friend told me not to explain what's going on in the pictures, so I'm gonna follow her advice and I'm not going to explain. Figure it out for yourselves and it'll be more interesting.

Caffè

Paris, France, 2013

In Paris, typical bar where you can stop and eat, have a drink, get a coffee or simply read the paper. This woman was doing exactly that, getting a coffee and reading the paper. She has no idea I took a picture of her and actually not many people realize when I take pictures of them, maybe because I don't even look at them when I take a picture. 

Façade

Lille, France, 2013

I went to the north of France, exactly Lille. I was used to see some other kind of things in Poland, but going to France and Belgium kinda took me out of everything, since things were very different. The architecture in Lille was French mixed with Flaming so it was quite unique. I really liked these buildings and how they looked all together one right next to the other on a random Lille corner. 

Dawn

Rennes, France, 2012

We had to wake up early that morning to drive to Paris, the dawn created a strange feeling around the city and when I passed by this street I felt the city was abandoned! It was very weird indeed!

Boats

Saint-Malo, France, 2012

This was the Saint-Malo port on the afternoon before leaving to Rennes. The gold reflections on the water attracted my attention in combination with the black sky that was bringing a storm.

Low Tide

Saint-Malo, France, 2012

Saint-Malo is a wonderful place in the north of Brittany, is in front of the sea and has the city centre surrounded by big walls that protect it from either enemies than from the sea. The low tide leaves the boats above the sand waiting the evening to come to float on the water.

Saint-Malo

Saint-Malo, France, 2012

Saint-Malo is a city in northern brittany in France. The old city is surrounded by the old walls to protect it and you can walk all around and catch some very nice views of the sea and the rest of the city.

Hide and Seek

Giverny, France, 2012

Giverny is a small little town in Eure department really close to Paris. The town is best known for hosting Monet and being the inspiration for most of his artworks in his late years. These are the gardens of the Impressionism Museum, where some kids were playing hide and seek.

Caen Port

Caen, France, 2012

I had the chance to go to Caen to have dinner with my father while we were staying in Bayeaux in the north of France. We didn't have much time to see around, but we had dinner close to the port and I took some pictures.

Band

Pont Saint-Louis, Paris, France, 2012

These guys were playing a very nice tune and the girl who's singing had a beautiful voice, I kinda felt I traveled back to the thirties... So bad I can't remember their name!
Update!!! A friend reminded me their name: The Don LaRue Combo...

Getting out

Lyon, France, 2011

I took this picture back in July, and I already posted another picture with a child playing with the water in the same place... this one is a bit different though, since this child was caught (actually he made it on purpose) by the water in the spot were it grew really fast... so when it was too much, he moved away getting out of the water. Look at the expression in his face, is like saying, ok that's enough let's get the hell out!

Elder steps

Lyon, 2011

Lyon has a wonderful riverfront to walk and enjoy the view of the city. You get to see a lot of people walking by or cycling... not to forget the beautiful color of the river Rhone. This elder was walking through the riverfront very very slow with a paused rhythm, a funny face and the sandals with a suit. It makes him a very interesting subject.

Upset

Le Saint Nizie, Lyon, 2011

Some kids were playing outside the church after the mass, but this fellow was upset who knows why... He kinda looks like a kid from war time, thirties, forties... He was looking at the rest of the gang playing and having fun, but he was too proud to join them again.

Smile

Lyon, France, 2011

I caught this guy watching his kids (hope so) playing on a park, and he was having so much fun! He has such a weird face though!

Hospital beds

Lyon, France, 2011

This is totally not what it looks like, meaning that this is not a hospital, and these are not beds at all, actually this place doesn't even exist, because it's just a miniature model of a hospital room in the miniature museum in Lyon! pretty amazing isn't it? There were so many impressive models, it was just incredible.

Crying

Lyon, France, 2011

From what I could guess, this kid was crying because he didn't want to go into the building with his mother (maybe his home?), I guess he just wanted to stay in the place he was before! After a lot of crying, the mother just picked him and took him inside.

Three bicycles

Lyon, France, 2011

Lyon is such a beautiful city, I'm so glad I went... the city center is kinda protected or isolated because of the big river that goes through the city, so they managed to make people enjoy it...

Rise!

Place Antonin Poncet, Lyon, 2011

This fountain was giving such joy to this little guy! He was often fighting against the water throwing punches and kicks while the water grew taller or shrank... In this picture the water was growing little by little and he was excited just jumping and jumping right in the middle of it...
